Hello,

I would like to buy a new 3 in 1 wifi color printer (print-copy-scan), it is for home usage but I do not mind about laser or inkjet technology.
Wifi is a must as I want to be able to put it in any location at home.

However I would like a model that can be refilled by myself easily to save cost and still keep a good printing quality.

Any suggestion about which model to buy?

Thanks

Why do you honeslty need wi-fi option here ? I can tell you that I own something like wi-fi device with that matter anyway. Something like for example Samsung SCX-4600 and it can print, copy and scan just well. It just have no wi-fi and I do own wi-fi alone. It was $150 10 years ago.

Thanks everyone, finally I went for the Epson L4160 / Wifi is essential, if you want to be able to leave your printer anywhere in the house and share it remotely. I think it is a must, also to print directly from mobiles.

Any one of the L/ecotank model. no fuss drivers compared to the shit canon or HP installs on your pc.

and ink is cheap too.

I got the lower end model L120, rock solid. higher end model L655, also rock solid. L360 in the office also works super well.

I hate canon because of their shitty driver and software. also ink was super expensive last time, macam make no sense. and after a few device died I said screw them and go with epson.

My first epson was T13. lasted me for 9 years no joke, with a refillable tank. so they got clever and intro ecotank model and changed business model of cheap model + expensive ink with expensive model + cheap ink. I rather pay RM350 for a printer with cheap ink than RM150 + RM150 for refillable aftermarket, but that's me la.

no worries. still going strong. One T13 is going strong except for a plastic bit that blocked the paper feeder that I cut out of frustration and won't work anymore lol.

mind you that it still works, except for the plastic thing. no biggie since my other T13 still work, and the other ecotank models still perfect.

have to troubleshoot a shitty canon 3 in 1 and an old HP laserjet in the office, and if this time it stops working I won't bother anymore lol
